The divorce process between Michael and his second wife was hectic and the most challenging period of the retired footballer's life. Both parties accused themselves of many atrocities within and outside the marriage.

One of the most shocking questions that popped up during this separation process was, “Is Michael Strahan married to a man?” This interrogative statement may appear alarming now, but it was exactly what Jean insinuated when she accused her husband of being gay. Michael has since denied this accusation publically.

Michael fired back and accused Jean of emotionally abusing their twins and demanded full custody for the kids such that Jean would only have visiting rights to them.

In the end, Jean was awarded a $15.3 million compensation, plus $18,000 monthly for upkeeps and the likes. This sum was reduced after Michael retired from active footballing.
